When it comes to equipment, dairy processors said they seek easy-to-clean machinery to prevent cross-contamination.

Dairy processors said they seek durable packaging materials to increase stability as their products move through the supply chain. Processors also are using sustainable materials to extend shelf-life; seeking easy-to-open and close fitments; and developing attention-grabbing shapes and stand-up pouches.
Eriez will be unveiling its new metal detector at the Pack Expo show in Las Vegas this month. The new Xtreme metal detector meets high standards and is a good value, according to the company.
For the inspection of dairy products, Eagle Product Inspection has designed the Pack 400 HC, an energy-efficient X-ray inspection system that enhances overall safety and productivity.
The accurate, high-speed DualX X-ray Inspection System from Anritsu Industrial Solutions USA utilizes two energy signals to distinguish between product and contaminants.
Thermo Fisher Scientific’s long-life, heavy-duty washdown metal detector exceeds traditional IP69K ratings (the international standard for high pressure, high temperature washdown).
It all depends upon your point of view. But one thing is for sure: every dairy plant will be required to have a “qualified individual” who is responsible for
the facility’s FSMA program.
